Man, I truly hope Odyssey is ok....
I just realized the SWK hasn't played. Anyone recall how she played in their previous games?

They only had one previous game and she was glued to the bench in that one as well. Just not in the rotation yet.

With a very heavy limp. Final minute of the third quarter if you want to go back and find it. |

Just watched it. It looked more like her ankle than her knee to me.

The announcers thought Sims twisted her ankle in the replay and you could see the left ankle in a awkward position.
Riquna Williams has the WNBA records for points in a game (51) and yet right now is not a rotation player in the league.

But on the bench both she and the trainer appeared to be grabbing the knee.

In before someone complains about Cynthia Cooper.
Someone here said Weise has a slow release. Cynthia Cooper says "she gets that shot off so quickly". |
That someone was me...and I clearly corrected myself during/in the seattle/sparks game thread.

Wiese's release isn't as slow as I thought.

It's good to have depth because players are going to have off nights and that way you have someone else that can take up the slack. Weise had a really bad series during the NCAA's she couldn't buy a bucket and that hurt their chances. Right now she seems hot. But one thing I always noticed about her she does get rid of the ball quickly.
I also hope that Sims is OK. I still think Gray is a better true point to run the half court sets, but Sims also has her strengths and they could have a solid rotation using both. Sims seems to not be forcing her shots and that bodes well for the team. If they get decent production from Weise they could have a pretty solid rotation. Weise is definately an upgrade defensively from Kristi.
Players are always going to have hot and cold streaks so a few games is not really a good indication of what they will do throughout the season. But so far so good especially scoring balance wise.

Despite that, people will say there's not enough talent for expansion...

It's only the second weekend, but it definitely looks like the Sparks are the team to beat this season. Williams must be in Agler's dog house. We'll see if she plays in their next game.

Like Curt Miller was by giving them Gray. LA are a bunch of evil genius and I love it. But when you trade the draft pick that became Tina Charles for Noelle Quin something good has to come your way. |
Still better than trading the draft pick that became Tina Charles for Sidney Spencer. At least Noelle Quinn's still in the league. (Me? Still salty? Nawwwwwwwww.)
